a deadly plan in Marked 


encounters 


Stephen Fry plays Santa as he joins Kiefer Sutherland 
and Kevin McNally in the festive crime comedy Marked 


NEW COMEDY DRAMA 


Playhouse Presents: 
Marked 

Thursday, Sky Arts 1 HD, 10pm 

A dark starless night in a London 
street. His face hidden by a 
balaclava, Kiefer Sutherland is 
on a deadly mission as he closes 
in on his victim. . . 

It sounds like a scene straight out 
of 24, but this time Sutherland is 
playing it strictly for laughs in Sky 
Arts’ Marked , a quirky Christmas 
comedy drama about a reluctant 
hitman who couldn’t be more 
unlike his rogue agent Jack Bauer. 

The one-off special follows the 
misfortunes of James, played by 
Sutherland, a former US Marine 
Corps logistics worker now living 
in a drab London suburb with a 
wife and daughter. Unemployed, 
drowning in debt, and facing the 
prospect of having his house 
repossessed, James is unexpectedly 
handed a financial lifeline when 
his golf-mad neighbour Brian 
(Kevin McNally) comes to him 
with a crazy idea. 

‘Brian’s wife has been cheating 
on him with a bloke called Steve, so 
he asks James to bump him off for 
£1200,’ reveals McNally. ‘James 
makes a very unlikely 
hitman, but his life is 
collapsing around 
him, so he 
eventually 
agrees.’ 

However, 
when James 
breaks into 
Steve’s house

(Stephen Fry) warming himself by 
the fire. Will Santa be caught up in 
the deadly plot, or will James learn 
the importance of peace on Earth 
and goodwill to all men? 

‘The story is a lovely twisted 
Christmas tale,’ says McNally. 
‘Because Kiefer is so synonymous 
with Jack Bauer, it is really funny to 
see him play this bungling assassin.’ 

The Bristol-born actor, seen 
recently in the Channel 4 drama 
The Mill , had never worked with 
Sutherland before, though they had 
often met socially through their 
mutual friend, actor Greg Ellis, 
who wrote and directed Marked. 


To get the chance 


to work with Kiefer 


twice in one year 


was pretty good' 


KEVIN MCNALLY 

The comedy also reunited 
McNally with Stephen Fry. The 
pair had remained friends after 
meeting on the set of 1992 
drama Common Pursuit. 

‘Stephen really is a national 
treasure; he has proved himself over 
the years to be incredibly 
versatile. We had a very 
funny time on set - 
m it was more 

like a holiday 
than a job.’ 

For Fry, too, 
it proved to 
be a great 
1 J experience. 


itself,’ says the 57-year-old. 

‘I don’t know of many 
stars as charming and 
humble and with such a 
great capacity for work’. 

Shortly after making 
Marked , McNally 
teamed up with 
Sutherland and Fry 
again for 24: Live 
Another Day , which 
saw Fry play the 
British PM and 
McNally guest as a 
Russian agent who 
whisks Bauer away 
in a helicopter in the 
very final scene. 

‘Kiefer told me 
there was a tiny part 
that he wanted me to 
play,’ smiles McNally. 

‘I wasn’t too keen at first 
because it only had a 
couple of lines. Then he 
said, “Yes, but you play the 
man who gets Jack Bauer”. How 
could I refuse that? To get the 
chance to work with Kiefer twice 
in one year was pretty good.’ 

McNally is currently in the 
US filming the second series of the 
period drama TURN: Washingtons 
Spies before he returns home to 
spend Christmas in England with 
his wife Phyllis Logan, who plays 
unflappable housekeeper Mrs 
Hughes in Downton Abbey. 

‘Over in the US Downton 
is incredibly popular’, says 
the 58-year-old. ‘I only have 
to mention that I am married to 
Mrs Hughes and the free drinks 
come thick and fast.’

as unlikely hitman 
James and Stephen 
Fry as Father 
Christmas 


Next year, 
McNally will 
return to the US to continue 
filming TURN , which will 
shortly air in the UK on Netflix. 

‘I wouldn’t be surprised 
if I was in America for quite 
a few years making TURN , and 
the plan is for Phyllis to join 
me out there,’ he reveals. 

‘She is obviously committed 
to Downton , but when that 
comes to a conclusion, she’ll 
come to the US. She just did 
an episode of Bones , and it 
gave her the confidence that 
she will be able to find work. 

I told her she would be able 
to play every glamorous 
granny on US television.’

‘It’s set at Christmas at Downton

NEW CHARITY FUNDRAISER 


Text Santa 

Friday, ITV HD, 8pm 

A host of famous faces have graced 
the hallowed corridors of Downton 
Abbey over the years, from Richard 
E Grant to Shirley MacLaine and 
Kiri Te Kanawa - and now its the 
turn of George Clooney. 

Ever since the news emerged a 
couple of months ago that Clooney 
was taking part in a Downton sketch 
for ITV’s Text Santa appeal, fans of 
the period drama have been eager 
to see how he would intermingle 
with the Crawleys and their staff. 


All will be revealed in Friday’s 
special instalment, part of the 
star-studded annual pre-Christmas 
charity telethon, presented by 
Phillip Schofield, Christine 
Bleakley, Ant and Dec, Alesha 
Dixon and Paddy McGuinness. 

Although Downton has many 
celebrity fans across the Atlantic, 
it’s still no mean feat getting a 
Hollywood A-lister to appear in the 
sketch, which will also feature 
Jeremy Piven as Mr Selfridge. 

Fittingly, it was all made possible 
by Hugh Bonneville, aka Lord 
Grantham, who worked with the 
Oscar winner on World War Two 
film Monuments Men earlier this 


year and arranged for him to film 
at Highclere Castle in Berkshire, 
where Downton is shot. ‘The 
producer said, “What are our 
chances of getting George? 55 and I 
said, “Zero - he is a busy man 55 . But 
I got in touch and he very kindly 
said that he had one afternoon 
when he could come down to the 
castle, 5 explains Bonneville. ‘He was 
amazing, absolutely hilarious, good 
company and a real gentleman, 
so we were all very grateful. 5 

Although much of the content 
of the sketch is being kept secret, 
we do know that the 5 3 -year- old 
newlywed will not be playing 
himself. ‘George is upstairs not 
downstairs and he looks fabulous. 
He is suited and booted and he 
is playing a lord of sorts, but I 
can’t tell you exactly who, 5 teases

NEW DRAMA 


Black Mirror: 
White Christmas 

Tuesday, Channel 4 HD, 9pm 


Fans of Charlie Brooker's Black 
Mirror will know that the darkly 
satirical series reflects the writer’s 
fears that modern technology is 
warping our lives, and this year’s 
Christmas special is no exception. 

The 90-minute anthology is 
made up of three interwoven stories 
of techno-paranoia, which anyone 
who uses a smartphone or social 
media will find a little terrifying. 

Tt is certainly a counterpoint 
to the sort of feelgood special you 
tend to get at this time of the year,’ 
says Brooker, whose seasonal 
offering has attracted a Christmas 
cracker of a cast, including Mad 
Mens Jon Hamm, Rafe Spall 
and Oona Chaplin. 

Hamm, who appears in all three 
stories, knows better than to give 
away much of the plot when 
TV&Satellite Week chats to him on 
set. Tve done eight seasons of Mad 
Men so I’m used to not saying 
anything in interviews,’ he smiles. 

c What I will say is that Black 
Mirror looks at ideas that are 
familiar to everyone and takes them 
to an extreme that will most likely 
happen for real in our lifetimes.’ 

The 43 -year-old actor shares 
Brooker’s concerns over modern 



Itjlafe Spall and 
KOona Chaplin 


'Social media makes 

meuncomfortc 


It's a voluntary 

giving up of privacy' 


JON HAMM 

society’s obsession with technology. 
Tt’s omnipresent and it’s likely to 
explode even further. I have no 
presence whatsoever on Twitter or 
Facebook and that was a conscious 
choice,’ he explains. 

‘Social media makes me 
uncomfortable. It’s a voluntary 
giving up of privacy, which I don’t 
understand. The weirdest part of 
it now is that it’s expected - you’re 
expected to want to post private 
things on YouTube that everyone is 
supposed to want to share. It’s very 
strange. I think I’m a generation too 
late for it and thank God.’ 



Hamm may not like social media 
but he loves Brooker’s work. 

'Black Mirror airs on an obscure 
channel in the US, but a friend of 
mine was an early adopter of the 
series,’ he says. T watched it and was 
immediately taken with just how 
audacious and original it was. 
Charlie’s very humble about saying 
it’s inspired by a lot of things, but 
it’s unlike almost anything else on 
TV, certainly in the US. I watched 
all the episodes in the space of 36 
hours and I was dumbfounded 
from one to the next. 

‘This script is certainly the best 
thing I’ve read in some time.’ 

Hamm, who has starred in Sky 
Arts’ A Young Doctor s Notebook, 
has long been a devotee of British 
shows. ‘I’ve been a fan of British 
television ever since I can 
remember. I think back to being a 
kid and PBS would show re-runs 
of Monty Python, Blackadder and 
Doctor Who ,’ he says. ‘I liked those 
shows because they were 
approachable but very different, 
and that has informed my choices 
of what I do post -Mad Men! 

Meanwhile, Hamm already has 
his Christmas schedule sorted. 

‘My girlfriend Jen and I usually 
pack the dog in the car and drive up 
the coast of California to have 
Christmas with my aunt and uncle 
and then we keep driving,’ he 
smiles. ‘I won’t be able to watch 
Black Mirror, but maybe someone 
will send me the DVD!’

Edmondson 


with a picture 
of himself 


and Mayall 
in Bottom 


Ahead of this year's 
Comedy Awards, 

Ade Edmondson 

reflects on the 
recent death of his 
friend Rik Mayall 


NEW AWARDS CEREMONY 


The British 
Comedy Awards 

Wednesday, Channel 4 HD, 9pm 

As the cream of Britain s comedy 
talent gathers for its annual awards 
ceremony, it comes as a surprise to 
learn that Ade Edmondson doesn’t 
think of himself as a comedian. 

In fact, he’s pretty sick of the whole 
comedy thing. 

C I mean, I know I did The Young 
Ones and Bottom and various other 
outings, but. . . I never felt like a 
comedian,’ he says. £ I never stood up 
and cracked gags. I’ve always been 
part of a double act or a fiction. 

c Do you call Ronnie Barker a 
comedian?’ he asks. Yes, we say, we 
do. Edmondson considers this. £ You 
see, I think he’s better than that.’ 

Still, the 57-year-old concedes he 
enjoys a good double act - which is 
lucky because he was part of one 
himself, and is married to Jennifer 
Saunders, one half of French and 
Saunders and the mother of their 
three grown-up daughters. Also, 
one of his co-stars in his current 
project, the West End play Neville's 
Island , is Robert Webb, one half of 
comedy duo Mitchell and Webb. 

£ There’s a dynamic between a 
pair, which is infinitely more 
interesting than one person’s 
psychosis or whether their 
girlfriend’s left them or not,’ he says. 

For many years, Edmondson’s 
partner in comedy was Rik Mayall, 
whom he met at university and 
who became his best friend and 
long-term collaborator. 

Together, they wrote 
and starred in some 
of the most popular 
alternative comedy 
programmes of the 
1980s, including The 
Comic Strip Presents . . . 
and The Young Ones. 

In 1991, they teamed 
up again to write 
Bottom , which was a cult hit and 
spawned a stage show and a spin- 
off movie, Guest House Paradiso. 

Mayall also enjoyed individual 
success, and won Best TV Comedy 


Actor at the 1993 Comedy Awards 
for Rik Mayall Presents , six stand- 
alone ITV comedy dramas. But it is 
for his work alongside Edmondson 
that Mayall is still best remembered. 

£ I have never laughed as hard as I 
have writing with Rik,’ Edmondson 
says now. Apoplectic laughter.’ 

And then, in June 
this year, Rik died. 
He had never been 
quite the same since 
a serious quad-bike 
accident in 1998 left 
him in a coma for 
several days, says 
Edmondson; the 
incident left Mayall 
'strangely more 
emotional; still very funny’. His 
death was horribly sudden. 

£ Rik’s death was just enormous, 
and I haven’t talked to anyone other 
than close friends about it,’ he 


admits. £ I don’t really know how to 
talk about it to other people. I’m 
aware that people want something 
from me and I don’t quite know 
how to give them what they want.’ 

He looks apologetic. £ I knew 
you’d ask and, erm, I’ve been trying 
to think of a cogent way of talking 
about it, but I think, the thing is, 

I’m completely awash.’ 

The death of Mayall - who will be 
the subject of a BBC tribute to be 
shown over Christmas - was made 
more difficult by the fact that the 
duo had not worked together for 10 
years. Edmondson hadn’t wanted to 
retread old ground: he was proud of 
what they’d achieved and thought it 
stood on its own merits. 

He wanted to try different things: 
he formed a folk band, The Bad 
Shepherds, in 2008; he presented a 
few documentary series; and last 
year he won Celebrity MasterChef. 


He didn’t want to reunite with 
Mayall just to do £ a bad, late series 
like Morecambe and Wise’. He felt 
they’d had their allotted two boiled 
eggs, so why would they want four? 

It was a decision, he says, that 
‘confused’ his writing partner: £ I 
spent 10 years trying to explain to 
him why I didn’t want to work with 
him, you know, and it was tough.’ 

But they remained friends. The 
last time Edmondson saw Mayall, 
the pair went for a walk in London’s 
Hyde Park: £ We had a great time. . . 
and chatted about ordinary stuff.’ 

They got on so well, he thinks, 
because of a shared background. 
Both were the children of teachers, 
both went to ‘middle -class, 
direct-grant schools’. 

£ We were both, sort of, arty but 
with a taste for beer,’ he says, only 
half- joking. ‘So when we met we 
had a kind of shorthand.’ 


'Rik's death was 
just enormous. I 
don't know how

divine 


Bette Midler sings and shares showbiz stories in her first-ever UK TV special 


NEW ENTERTAINMENT 


Bette Midler: 

One Night Only 

Monday, ITV HD, 9pm 

No wonder they call her The Divine 
Miss M. Bette Midler is the epitome 
of showbiz: an entertainer who is 
able to command a Broadway stage 
as easily as a movie screen or a 
concert auditorium in Las Vegas. 

For the past 50 years, Midler, now 
69, has been wowing audiences with 
her big, belting voice and outrageous 
persona in concert, and delivering 
critically acclaimed turns in movies 
such as The Rose and For the Boys. 

She prides herself on coming alive 
in front of a camera or before an 
audience - and she does both this 
week in ITV s Bette Midler: One 
Night Only. But, she admits, 
preparing for the special was hard 
work since she hadn’t undertaken 
a full-scale show for some time. 

c To get back on my feet with my 
band and my backing singers and all 
those costumes was a bit of a struggle. 
But it was worth it,’ she says. 

Tt was great fun, although I had 
to get fit again first. You need to get 
your lungs going and that involves 
the treadmill. If your pump isn’t 
working properly, you’re out of luck.’ 

Midler - named after actress Bette 
Davis by her film- fan mother - put 
in the effort because One Night Only 
is a showcase for her new album, It’s 
the Girls!, on which she sings her 


versions of songs originally made 
famous by all- girl groups, including 
You Can’t Hurry Love by The 
Supremes and Waterfalls by TLC. 

As well as singing tracks from the 
album, Midler also performs her 
classic hits, including From a 
Distance and Wind Beneath My 
Wings, and discusses her long and 
varied career with the programme’s 
host, Joanna Lumley. 

That career began when, as a 
youngster, Midler won a singing 
contest in her home-town of 
Honolulu, Hawaii, and, soon after, 
discovered a love of the stage at a 
local community theatre. By the 


Tm not saying that 


entertainment is a 


childish thing but, in 


time, you grow up' 


time she was 22, she was appearing 
on Broadway in Fiddler on the Roof. 

However, her career has faltered at 
times: following her three-year stint 
on Broadway, acting roles dried up 
and she reinvented herself as a torch 
singer, spicing up her act with snappy 
and risque dialogue, which included 
impersonations of Mae West. 

Midler’s outsize personality proved 
a hit on the club stage. After doing 
the rounds in New York, she released 
her first album with her accompanist, 
a then-unknown Barry Manilow, 


A 


l I 



who has called her £ the most talented 
and craziest woman’ he’s ever met. 

That 1972 platinum-selling album, 
The Divine Miss M, catapulted Midler 
to stardom and led to TV gigs that 
were followed by movie offers. 

The 1979 film drama The Rose 
won her an Oscar nod, and in the 
mid-1980s she displayed a gift for 
comedy in Down and Out in Beverly 
Hills and Ruthless People, before 
enjoying another career high with 
the 1988 tear-jerker Beaches. 

Off screen, Midler found personal 
happiness with performance artist 
Martin von Haselberg, whom she 
married in 1984. Two years later, 
they had a daughter, Sophie, 
now an actress. 

More recently she has turned 
to Las Vegas - her show, The 
Showgirl Must Go On, ran 
from 2008 to 2010 - and 
last year it was announced 
that she would play her 
heroine Mae West in an 
HBO movie biography. 


Next year, Midler will embark 
on her first UK tour for 35 years. 

Surprisingly, though, the star 
says she won’t go on performing 
till she drops. Tm coming to the 
end of the line. When you have 
more of the road behind you 
than ahead, it becomes a very 
focusing thing. And you start 
thinking about the world. 

Tve never been to Africa or South 
America,’ she reveals. Tve never seen 
a rhinoceros. I’ve achieved my 
childhood dream. I’m not saying 
that entertainment is a childish 
thing but, in time, you do grow up. 

£ Now the dream is just about 
over. I’m still alive, still vibrant. 

But I would like to see what other 
dreams I can come up with.’ 

So, with all she has done and 
learned along the way, what advice 
would Midler give her 16-year-old 
self if she were sitting beside her now? 

Tf your panties fall down around 
your feet, just step out 
of them and keep 
on singing!

This week on TV 



Former Apprentice winner Ricky Martin 
joins the show's dreaded interviewers 


BUSINESS 


The Apprentice 

Wednesday, BBC1 HD, 9pm 


Ricky Martin won the 2012 series 
of The Apprentice, but not before 
being verbally slaughtered during 
the interview stage. One of Ricky’s 
interrogators, Claude Littner, 
memorably described his 
personal statement as being 
crass, obnoxious and infantile’. 

So Martin admits it feels strange 
to join the business executive, 
magazine boss Mike Soutar, and 
media managing director 
Claudine Collins in 
grilling the current 
crop for the interview 
round, which will 
decide who makes 
next week’s final. 

‘Claude gave me a 
particularly tough 
time,’ recalls Martin. 

‘But I was given a hard 
time based on an 
application form I’d completed 
while sitting on my sofa watching 
The Apprentice and thinking, 

“I want to go on that show, so let’s 
write something that will stand out”. 
‘It’s surreal to now be interviewing 
the candidates and helping Lord 
Sugar make his decisions.’ 



™ Daniel Lassman 


Martin, a biochemist, 
recruitment manager and former 
wrestler, used Lord Sugar’s 
£250,000 investment to launch 
his Essex-based company, Hyper 
Recruitment Solutions. 

‘Lord Sugar turned around to 
me and said, “We’ve been running 
this company together for the last 
two years and you’ve actually been 
hiring people into my companies, 
so would you like to help me do 
the interviews?”’ 

The 29-year-old admits he said 
some daft things during his time 
on the show, including the 

following gem: ‘I’m like a 
shark, right at the top 
of the food chain. 

I take what I want, 
when I want. I truly 
am the reflection 
of perfection.’ 

‘I went into The 
Apprentice talking a 
lot of game at the 
start before I could 
back it up,’ he smiles. ‘And 
some of the candidates have 
done exactly the same this time.’ 

Martin, who shortened his name 
from Richard to Ricky - like the 
pop singer - so people would 
remember him, points to Daniel as 
one who’s spouted the most garbage, 
but also believes he isn’t all bad. 



‘There are people who talk a lot 
of rubbish but don’t try hard and 
just hide behind it. And then there’s 
someone like Daniel, who also talks a 
lot of rubbish, but who is genuinely 
trying. As a former market trader, 
Daniel has sold things in the wet and 
cold, which is something I imagine 
Lord Sugar can relate to.’ 

Martin says he has been loving 
the current series, especially the 
cringeworthy moments. ‘The most 
embarrassing moment was when 
James started singing The Wheels 
on the Bus during his team’s coach 
trip,’ he laughs. ‘I certainly would 
have been asking for a full refund 
at the end of that.’ 

Martin adds that Lord Sugar has 
been excellent to work with. ‘He’s 
very straight down the line. 


Whether he likes something 
or doesn’t, he’ll tell you 
exactly how it is.’ 

So, will Ricky be equally 
tough for the interviews? 

‘I’m a direct interviewer,’ 
he explains. ‘I’ll be asking 
very probing questions so 
I can understand what 
somebody’s about.’ 

• Trusted aides Nick Hewer 
and Karren Brady help profile 
the boardroom survivors in 
The Final Five on Tuesday, 

BBC1 HD, 10.35pm (Scotland, 
11.35pm), and Lord Sugar 
explains the harsh realities 
of business in Why I Fired Them 
on Thursday, BBC1 HD, 10.35pm.

Strictly's Craig Revel Horwood picks 
his best dances since the show began 


DANCE CONTEST 


Strictly Come Dancing 

Saturday, BBC1 HD, 6.50pm 


Ahead of this week’s Strictly 
semi-final, we asked judge Craig 
Revel Horwood to reveal his six 
favourite routines from a decade 
of dazzling dances. . . 




Best Samba 

2004 Julian Clary & 
Erin Boag 

'I loved Julian with his 
maracas-hewas iconic. 
The routine wasn't 
executed well but it was 
memorable and certainly 
a crowd-pleaser. He finally 
got a dance that allowed 
him to act and it was really 
funny to watch.’ 



Best Jive 

2004 Jill Halfpenny & 
Darren Bennett 

'This was the first time 
I ever marked a 1 0 and 
it was a surprise that a 
celebrity could get to 
that standard. Jill set the 
benchmark, and from then 
on the contestants became 
more competitive and 
interested in the dancing.' 



Best Paso doble 

2007 Kenny Logan & 
Ola Jordan 

'This was exciting because 
we got to see a rugby 
player doing the paso 
in a kilt. It was a really 
powerful routine and it 
got a standing ovation 
every night on the Strictly 
tour -they brought the 
house down.’

in an emotionally 
powerful 
US drama

NEW DRAMA 


Olive Kitteridge 

Sunday & Monday, 

Sky Atlantic HD, 9pm 

Six years ago, a friend of Frances 
McDormand gave her the Pulitzer 
prize-winning novel Olive 
Kitteridgeby Elizabeth Strout, 
with the recommendation that 
it be turned into a film. 

C I loved it, but I put it aside. It was 
not a novel I thought needed to be 
made into a movie, 5 the 57-year-old 
actress recalls. C I didn’t think two 
hours was long enough to tell such 
a good story, and I didn’t want to 
diminish it.’ 

However, McDormand couldn’t 
get the book out of her head. 
Eventually, it occurred to her that a 
TV mini-series would be the perfect 
format. T was 5 1 or 52 at the time, 
and I wanted to start generating 
my own work, so I optioned it for 
a series,’ she explains. 

McDormand’s initial misgivings 
were understandable. The novel 
is made up of 13 short stories and 
spans a quarter of a century in a 
seemingly ordinary tale of an 
acerbic maths teacher, Olive, with 
an abrasive habit of speaking the 
truth, however much it hurts others. 

The job of adapting such difficult 
material for the small screen fell 
to Mad Men writer Jane Anderson, 
who turned it into a poignant, 
slow-burning two-parter, shown 
over consecutive nights this week 
on Sky Atlantic. 

c My job was to look at the essence 
of this fabulous book that had no 
dramatic narrative whatsoever,’ 
Anderson says. Tt was the hardest 
assignment I’ve ever had because 
I think there’s a rule: the greater 
the piece of literature, the harder 
it is to adapt for television. 

‘Olive is that horrible maths 
teacher you had in school,’ she 
adds. ‘She’s the cranky neighbour 
who won’t talk to you over the 
fence. She’s the lady on the street 
who has that look on her face - 
though she’s infinitely decent, 
brave and noble.’ 

The story begins in the woods of 
New England where a 70-year-old 
Olive, played by McDormand, lays 
down a woollen blanket and loads 
up a gun, before winding back 
to 25 years earlier, to the home 
she shares with her cheerful 
pharmacist husband, Henry ( Six 
Feet Under s Richard Jenkins), and 
their teenage son Christopher. 

Tn the first hour of the story, you 
meet Olive and Henry at a crisis in 
their life,’ says McDormand. And 
then you see how that crisis 
reverberates and ripples through 





Richard Jenkins 


as Olive's husband 


Henry and John 
Gallagher Jr as^^h

the rest of their marriage, and how 
it affects not only their son, but 
also the community they live in. 5 

In one scene, Henry finds the 
Valentine’s card he had given to 
Olive thrown in the garbage, 
only for Olive to coldly explain, 

C I already read it’. 

It soon becomes clear that Olive 
is struggling with depression, and 
has a family history of the illness. 

‘When she was 13, her father 
committed suicide and she found 


'Olive is the horrible 
maths teacher you | 
had;thecrankyB | 
neighbour who flif 
won't talk to you../ 1 


JANE ANDERSON Scriptwriter 

him in the kitchen,’ explains 
McDormand. ‘From that point 
on, the fear of connecting and 
surrendering herself to her son, to 
her husband, to anyone was a real 
risk. The drama is about how a 
marriage survives depression - and 
not just one woman’s depression, 
but generations of depression.’ 

The story is set in Crosby, Maine, 
though it was shot on location 
in Massachusetts. ‘The most 
important thing was that it wasn’t 


quaint Maine,’ says McDormand. 
‘It was a working Maine, and a 
working-class Maine. It was a town 
that had an industrial past, and 
what you see in the 25 years the 
drama spans is that the industry 
really changes from small, 
privately-owned firms to 
corporately-owned businesses.’ 

Born in Chicago, McDormand 
spent much of her childhood in 
small-town Pennsylvania after 
being adopted by a preacher and 
his wife. After leaving home in her 
teens, she began her career on 
Broadway before making her name 
in 1988’s Mississippi Burning , for 
which she was Oscar-nominated. 
In 1996, she won the Best Actress 
Oscar as police chief Marge 
Gunderson in the Coen brothers’ 
classic dark thriller Fargo. 

‘When I look back on the arc 
of my acting career, I have pretty 
much played working-class or 
middle-class women, and those 
roles have served me well. 

‘In most of my film roles I’ve 
played supporting characters to 
male protagonists, and that often 
happens in women’s lives. Whether 
it be our husbands, our sons, 
our bosses - we play a supporting 
role to men. 

‘I think that’s part of what Olive 
Kitteridge is about - a woman 
who, under a lot of circumstances, 
would be invisible. But she makes 
sure she is not.’ 


W MURRAY'S THE MAN 


Olive Kitteridge also 
features a rare TV 
appearance from 
Hollywood star Bill 
Murray, who plays Jack 
Kennison, a widower 
who strikes up a 
relationship with Olive. 
The eccentric 64-year- 
old actor, whose credits 
include Ghostbusters, 
Groundhog Day and 
Lost in Translation, is 
notoriously difficult 


to contact -he has 
no agent and doesn't 
like email -but 
McDormand, who 
starred with Murray as 
a husband and wife in 
2012 movie Moonrise 
Kingdom, managed 
to track him down to 
offer him the role. 

'It's really great to see 
Bill play a grown-up. 
He's never left his inner 
child, but Jack Kennison 



is a full-on, fully- 
fledged, grieving 
grown-up. And that, 
I think, was heaven 
for Bill to play.'

NEW MEMORY 


Memory Slam 

Tuesday, Watch HD, 8pm 

If you're the type of person who 
always needs to make a list to 
remember things, then help could 
be at hand in this week’s Watch 
documentary Memory Slam , 
presented by Countdown maths 
whizz Rachel Riley. 

The one-off programme 
follows eight schoolchildren, 
aged 12 - 14, as they take on 
various mental challenges over 
the two-day UK Schools Memory 
Championships. Watching over 
proceedings are former Strictly 
Come Dancing contestant Riley 
and eight-time world memory 
champion Dominic O’Brien. 

‘They’re just normal kids from 
various different backgrounds,’ 
explains Riley, whose mental 
arithmetic skills are kept up to 
scratch by her day job, which 
includes solving problems on the 
Countdown numbers board. 

‘They didn’t have a special 
aptitude or know they had a 
particularly good memory 
beforehand. They just entered a 
competition at school and these 
eight finalists were then given 
specialist training by a memory 
champion and taught memory 
techniques - that’s how they 
became so good.’ 

Apparently, these are techniques 
that anyone can learn to help 


them perform feats of memory 
they never thought possible. For 
instance, in one particularly tricky 
challenge, the contestants must 
remember 104 random objects 
in the correct sequence - so how 
do they manage that? 

‘There’s a technique called the 
“journey system”,’ explains Riley. 
‘In your mind, you put the objects 
somewhere familiar, for instance 
in your home. Start off in one 
room and mentally place some 
objects there, and then move 
on into other rooms upstairs 
and downstairs. 

‘When remembering 
numbers, you have 
a visual image of 
an object or person 
that goes with each 
number,’ she adds. 

‘I use memory 
techniques to 
remember the 
names of the many 
different contestants 
we have on 
Countdown. It’s 
about using visual 
aids: you picture 
someone you 
know - or a 
well-known 
person with the 
same name - 
doing something 
bizarre with an 
unusual object. 

The weirder the 
image, the better.’ 


The good news is that the more 
you practise using visual aids, the 
easier recalling things becomes. 

‘That’s why learning the times- 
table is so important for children 
- it’s instant recall and it speeds 
everything up,’ says Riley, 28, who 
hopes programmes like Memory 
Slam can help to popularise 
maths in the way that Professor 
Brian Cox has been instrumental 
in transforming the image of 
science among young people. 

‘Your brain is a muscle, and if 
you practise things and use it a lot, 
it becomes stronger.’ 

Riley certainly needed to 
build up her ‘muscle memory’ 
ahead of her appearances as 
a Strictly contestant last year, 
and she readily admits it was 
quite hard to remember 
her dance sequences. 
‘On Strictly , I 
found out I was 
a perfectionist 
and I was 
always 
beating 
myself 
up about 
things,’ 
says Riley. 

‘I never set 
a realistic target, 
whenever I did 
anything I’d criticise the 
bad things about it. 

‘But now it’s all about 
learning to appreciate 
the good things...’

in cameos and supporting 
roles. Ricky Gervais plays 
the shifty Dominic Badguy, 
pronounced £ bad-gee’. Tt’s 
French,’ he says. £ It means, 
“good man”.’ And it is 
Badguy who gets the plot 
rolling by hoodwinking the 
Muppet gang into going on 
a global tour, offering to act 
as their manager. 

Sure enough, it is all a ruse 
to pull off a string of heists 
in European capital cities, a 
dastardly scheme that leaves 
the hapless Kermit banged 
up in a Siberian gulag, his 
place in the troupe replaced 
by a fiendish Russian 
lookalike, evil criminal 
mastermind Constantine. 

Naturally, the rest of the 
naively trusting Muppets 
fail to spot the deception, 
despite Constantine’s thick 
accent and all-round 
dodgy behaviour. 

Truth be told, the film is a 
bit dodgy, too. The gags and 
songs are not as funny as last 
time around and the plot 
drags from time to time. 

But Tina Fey is great fun 
as a Broadway-loving gulag 
guard, Modern Family s 
Ty Burrell is even funnier 
as a ludicrous Interpol 
agent, and the Muppets 
themselves are as adorable 
as ever. 2014, U, 113MIN

is tender, sad, funny and honest. 2012, 12, 100MIN

This third instalment in JK Rowling's

A calculating teen comedy that ruthlessly

of male friends who enter into a pact to 
lose their virginity before they graduate 
from high school. The film isn't really 
interested in exploring the realities of 
adolescent fumblings, but instead 
presents a series of raunchy sketches 
interspersed with some winsome 
romance. For all that, though, it is

This animated Christmas fantasy was one of the first films to test the

Tom Hanks, are recorded and digitised on a computer before being used as

2005’s Sin City for another set of startlingly gory, 
brazenly depraved tales. Mickey Rourke, Jessica 
Alba, Rosario Dawson and Powers Booth return 
and they are joined by new faces Joseph Gordon- 
Levitt and Eva Green. Second time around, the 
film’s pulp-noir sensibility feels a bit jaded, but 
many of the images still dazzle. 2014, 18, 102MIN 


The pick of 
the week on 
Sky Store and 
Virgin Movies 

Cold in July 

Dexter star Michael C Hall plays a 
jittery everyman hero in a tense, 
twisty crime thriller set in Texas in 
1989. Hall’s meek family man is 
hailed a hero after killing a 
would-be burglar but incurs the 
wrath of the criminal’s ex-con 
father (Sam Shepard). The film's 
characters are richly drawn and 
superbly acted. ( 15, llOmin) 

Dawn of the 
Planet of the Apes 



Both an exciting action movie 
and an intelligent moral fable, 
this sequel to 2011 's Rise of the 
Planet of the Apes is another 
superior slice of sci-fi. Set 10 
years after the earlier film, the 
story sees a band of human 
survivors coming into conflict 
with a genetically enhanced 
tribe of intelligent apes led by 
prime primate Caesar (Andy 
Serkis).(12,130min) 

The Face of Love 

★★★ 

Annette Bening’s grief-stricken 
widow stumbles upon the double 
of her dead husband (Ed Harris) 
and inveigles her way into his life 
without telling him why she is 
drawn to him. Things get 
extremely messy when he starts 
falling in love with her. Bening 
and Harris pour so much genuine 
emotion into their roles that they 
just about carry the film’s fanciful 
premised 12, 90min) 

God’s Pocket 

iriririr 

PREMIERE (Sky Store & Virgin 
Movies from Mon) Actor John 
Slattery makes his feature film 
directing debut with this darkly 
comic crime drama set in a 
tough, working-class corner of 
late-1970s Philadelphia known 
as 'God’s Pocket’. Philip Seymour 
Hoffman is typically superb in 
one of his final roles as one of 
the district's scrappy blue-collar 
denizens, and he is backed by 
Slattery’s Mad Men co-star 
Christina Hendricks as his 
disappointed wife. (15, 89min) 

Guardians 

of the Galaxy 



This freewheeling Marvel 
Comics movie is an entertaining 
sci-fi romp about a band of 
vagabonds who stumble into 
a quest to save the galaxy 
from destruction. The group's 
self-appointed leader is Chris 
Pratt's swaggering space 
adventurer, and he gets oddball 
support from the likes of a 
talking raccoon. ( 12, 121 min) 


Hercules 



Dwayne Johnson makes the 
perfect lead in this amiable 
tongue-in-cheek adventure. 

His Hercules is not the familiar 
demigod of legend but a warrior 
for hire with a trusty band of 
companions. The battles are 
served up with vigour and flair, 
but it is the cheesy jokes that 
help make the film so ridiculously 
entertaining. ( 12, 98min) 

How to Train 
Your Dragon 2 

★★★★ 

A soaring sequel to 2010's 
enchanting animated adventure. 
This time, misfit Viking teenager 
Hiccup (voiced by Jay Baruchel) 
is forced to take a break from 
mapping the world with the aid 
of his tame dragon Toothless in 
order to defend the land of Berk 
from an evil invader (Djimon 
Hounsou). (PG,100min) 

Into the Storm 

★★ 

PREMIERE (Sky Store & Virgin 
Movies from Mon) In a whirlwind 
of disaster movie cliches and 
tornado-force stupidity, a bunch 
of paper-thin characters - Matt 
Walsh's storm chaser, Sarah 
Wayne Callies' meteorologist, 
Richard Armitage's school vice 
principal - are thrust into harm's 
way as a series of cyclones 
sweeps through a fictional 
Midwest town. ( 12, 89min) 


The Nut Job 



A roguish squirrel (voiced by 
Will Arnett) comes to learn the 
value of teamwork in this daft 
animated comedy set in a 
charmingly retro 1950s 
America. (U, 86min) 

Sin City: A Dame 
to Kill For 

jtjrir 

PREMIERE (Sky Store & Virgin 
Movies from Fri) See review, 
above. ( 18, 102min) 

Transformers: 

Age of Extinction 

+++ 

The fourth sci-fi blockbuster 
based on the shape-changing 
toys stars Mark Wahlberg as a 
widowed amateur inventor who 
gets drawn into the battle 
between good and bad alien 
robots. Cue lots of metal- 
crunching slow-motion 
destruction. ( 12, 165min) 

X-Men: Days of 
Futur e Past 

++++ 

Hugh Jackman's Wolverine 
goes back in time to 1973 in a 
bid to alter the course of history 
and thereby stop the X-Men of 
the future from being wiped out. 
The knotty time-travel story in 
this superhero adventure unites 
the Marvel Comics mutants' 
older and younger selves in a 
gripping yarn. ( 12, 131 min)

AWARDS SHOW 


Sunday, BBC1 HD, 8pm 

The BBC celebrates 12 months of 
sporting achievement on Sunday 
when Gary Lineker, Clare Balding 
and Gabby Logan host the BBC 
Sports Personality of the Year live 
from Glasgow’s Hydro Arena. 

It’s been a year of thrilling action, 
from the Winter Olympics and 
footballs World Cup to Glasgow’s 
Commonwealth Games and a 
memorable Formula One season. 

Lewis Hamilton’s recent world 
title triumph is sure to boost his 
chances of picking up the coveted 
award won last year by Andy 
Murray, but it’s golfer Rory 
Mcllroy who is the 
bookies’ favourite 
following back- 
to-back major 
wins in 2014. 

Here, the 
2 5 -year- old 
Northern 


Irishman reflects on a sensational 
year that also saw him help Europe 
retain the Ryder Cup . . . 


What was your proudest 
achievement in 2014? Winning 


28 TV&Satellite Week 



the Open Championship at 
Hoylake. I haven’t had much time 
to reflect on it because it has been 
such a busy year, but seeing that 
Claret Jug is very special. 

Why was it so satisfying? Going 
in, there were a lot of questions: 
£ How is he going to play?’ ‘Links 
golf isn’t really his forte.’ All this 
sort of stuff. I was really proud of 
my performance. My mum being 
there was very special. She had not 
experienced that before. 


!, Gary and 
Gabby with the 
BBC trophy A 


Some people point 
to changes in your 
private life making 
you more focused 

I am in a really good 
place. I probably had 


the same between 2009 and 2011; 

I was settled then, played great golf 
and was consistent. It’s one of the 
reasons I have been so consistent 
again this year; there aren’t other 
things going on in the background 
that are distracting me. 

Has this season taken your 
profile up to the next level? Yes, I 
lave really noticed a difference. But 
nothing has changed with the 
people who know me. I’m still just 
Rory from Holywood to them. I’m 
that same boy who was up at the 
golf club every day hitting balls. 

You live in Florida now. Do you 
miss Northern Ireland? I am a 

iome bird, so I try to get back there 
as often as I can. Northern Ireland 
will always be my home. 

I love coming back. 


You recently set up your own 
charity. Tell us about it I had been 
an ambassador for Unicef for a 


couple of years but I wanted to start 
something of my own. That’s why I 
set up The Rory Foundation for 
children with cancer. As I’ve 
become older, I’ve grasped more of 
what I can do in society. I don’t 
want my children to be proud of 
their dad as a major championship 
winner, but as someone who was 
able to help people less fortunate. 

If you win the Masters next year, 
you will complete a career grand 
slam of all the majors. Is that a 
big motivation? That is already 
the one thing I am really looking 
forward to next year. The green 
jacket is the last one. I know there is 
going to be a lot of hype and a lot of 
pressure going into Augusta but I 
just have to deal with that. 

• The Rory Foundation helped to 
found Daisy Lodge, a support centre in 
Newcastle, Co Down, for children with 
cancer. For details and to donate, visit

Thursday as the

coverage of the action at 
London’s Alexandra 
Palace, where Holland’s 
Michael van Gerwen defends 
his PDC world title. 

With several top players all 
currently in good form, Sky 
Sports’ darts commentator 
Dave Clark is predicting a 
keenly- contested tournament. 

T’m convinced Phil Taylor 
has got another world 
championship up his sleeve,’ 
he says. ‘Especially now that 
he has got used to his new 
darts. James Wade is back in 
form, too, after winning the 
Masters last month. Van 
Gerwen made waves last year, 
and the Ally Pally crowd love 
him, but it’s harder to defend 
your title than to win it.’

5 Q- 


Michael Kitchen's senior Ml 5 agent 
investigates three new Cold War cases 


DUE TO AIR January on ITV. 

WHAT'S COMING UP As the hit 

drama returns, senior intelligence 
officer Christopher Foyle, who’s 
aided by his faithful former driver 
Sam Wainwright (nee Stewart), 
embarks on more Cold War 
investigations in three new films 
-with the opener revolving 
around US businesses accused of 
fuelling Hitler’s war machine. 


The new episodes will also reflect 
on the black market, which is still 
thriving as rationing continues in 
the late- 1940s, and the tangled 
web of promises to create a state 
of Israel in British Palestine. 

WHO'S IN IT Michael Kitchen 
returns as Foyle alongside 
Honeysuckle Weeks as Sam. Ellie 
Haddington is also back as Foyle’s 
boss, Hilda Pierce, along with 


Daniel Weyman as Sam’s 
husband, Adam. John Mahoney, 
who’s best known for playing 
Marty Crane in Frasier , guest 
stars as an oil baron in the first 
episode, High Castle. Other guests 
include Richard Lintern, Jaime 
Winstone and Nigel Lindsay. 

WHY WE LOVE IT Writer 
Anthony Horowitz effortlessly 
manages to take Foyle from 
World War Two to the intrigue of 
the Cold War. His careful research 
means he always brings historical 
touches to the stories, which give 
them a compelling ring of truth. 






WHAT'S 
NEXT FOR... 


Anthony Hopkins 

The Oscar winner will appear in BBC2's 
adaptation of Ronald Harwood's play 
The Dresser following the relationship 
between a 
veteran actor 
and his 
dresser 
played 
by Ian 

McKellen, in 
World War Two. 


Idris Elba 

The actor will reprise his role as 
passionate cop DCIJohn Luther for 
a two-part special of the London- 
based crime 
drama 
Luther, 
which will 
start filming 
in March 
and air 
on BBC1. 

Richard Ayoade 

The IT Crowd star will present a 
Channel 4 travelogue, Travel Man, 
in which he tries to overcome his 
hatred of 
holidays by 
going on 
trips with 
famous 
faces, 
including 
Kathy Burke. 


Sean Bean 

The actor, most recently seen in 
Legends, will star in ITV Encore's 
six-part period crime drama The 

Frankenstein 
Chronicles 

playing a 
detective in 
pursuit of a 
crazed killer 
in Regency 
London.
